Definitions
- the present invention relates to the fields of 3D printing and bioprinting. More particularly, embodiments of the present invention relate to optically-based systems and methods which allow for assessments of bioink printability.
- a 3D bioprinter is a machine or device that spatially deposits, cross-links, or assembles biomaterials known as bioinks to fabricate tissue-like structures that are utilized in medical therapeutic, drug discovery, research, and tissue engineering fields.
- Bioprinters utilize materials known as bioinks to assemble multilayered three-dimensional structures or single layered two-dimensional patterns via extruded filaments, deposited droplets, or controlled crosslinking.
- Bioprinting utilizes 3D printing and 3D printing—like techniques to combine cells, growth factors, and biomaterials to fabricate constructs that maximally imitate natural tissue characteristics and can be utilized in applications such as drug evaluation and discovery, tissue and organ engineering, studying cells in a 3D environment, and recapitulating multifaceted native architectures.
- bioinks Materials that are suitable for 3D bioprinting applications are distinct from traditional 3D printing materials. These materials, known as bioinks, can be defined by two qualities. The first is the ability to support and maintain cell viability during and after the printing process, the second is maintenance of structure and resulting filament characteristics after deposition and cross-linking (if applicable). As available bioinks increase there is a need for complementary techniques and metrics to validate a 3D bioprinted structure and bioinks.
- Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for optical assessments of bioink printability.
- the systems and methods include the use of hardware such as bioprinter or 3D printer systems, optical imaging devices, and standardized or customizable optical targets to enable the evaluation of bioink printability.
- the optical targets are developed and fabricated from 3D printable materials for the establishment of comparison and calibration standards based on “nozzle fidelic” or other materials such as those with well characterized thermosensitivity, cross-linking behavior, stability, or other relative properties.
- the optical targets make it possible to rapidly compare and evaluate bioink printability and can be easily customized and tailored for specific applications.

- FIG. 6 is a flowchart of a method for ink/bioink calibration according to an embodiment.
- FIG. 7 is a flowchart of a printing process according to an embodiment.
- Optical Imaging is the use of light as an investigational imaging technique for medical and other applications. Examples include optical microscopy, spectroscopy, endoscopy, scanning laser ophthalmoscopy, and optical coherence tomography. According to this disclosure, the optical imaging apparatus includes one or more sensors and/or cameras for capturing images and/or video.
- Droplet is a structure that is formed when a material, for example, a bioink, is extruded at a single location on the print surface.
- the printhead does not translate in the x-y plane (where the x-y plane is the print surface), only in the z-direction, if necessary.
- the resultant shape is typically circular or eclipse in shape when observed from above with an eccentricity between 0 and 1, and a minimum volume of 1 nL.
- a droplet can also be deposit through contactless bioprinting or printing techniques such as the use of an inkjet printing mechanism or an electrical field.
- a printed filament is a structure that is formed when a bioink is extruded across the print surface where the printhead translates along waypoints to result in a non-enclosed structure.
- the printhead translates in the x-y plane (where the x-y plane is the print surface), with the nozzle positioned above the surface in the z-axis at a height between 10% and 500% of the nozzle inner diameter.
- a printed filament structure typically has a minimum total length to width ratio of 1 and a maximum of 100000.
- Geometric structure is a structure that is formed when a bioink is extruded across the print surface during printhead translation along waypoints and intersects or contacts the existing structure to enclose an area.
- the printhead translates in the x-y plane (where the x-y plane is the print surface), with the nozzle positioned above the surface in the z-axis at a height between 10% and 500% of the nozzle inner diameter.
- These geometric structures have a minimum of 0 vertices and 1 edge and enclose an area. The angle between subsequent edges at vertices can range from 0.001 degree to 179.99 degrees.
- An infill pattern is a structure that is formed when a bioink is extruded across a print surface during printhead translation along waypoints in a fashion to fill in a printed geometric shape.
- the printhead translates in the x-y plane (where the x-y plane is the print surface), with the nozzle positioned above the surface in the z-axis at a height between 10% and 500% of the nozzle inner diameter.
- the infill pattern typically provides structural support, porosity, or generates micro-architectures that mimic native tissue structure or serve as a framework for tissue regeneration.
- the spacing between the centers of adjacent filaments can range from a distance equal to the filament diameter to 5 times, 10 times, or 100 times the filament diameter.
- Infill pattern can also include multiple material or bioink types that are arranged or encapsulated within the broader structure.
- Deposited filaments such as those composed of sacrificial materials such as PEO (poly(ethylene oxide)), PEG (poly(ethylene glycol)), Pluronics® (poloxamers), and/or gelatin based bioink, can be used.
- Sacrificial materials which dissolve or are otherwise not permanent or present in the final structure are useful, for example, for creating void regions, conduits, and/or perfusable channels and can also be considered an infill pattern.
- These sacrificial materials may comprise 0% to 100% of the infill pattern, such as from 5-90%, or 15-75%, or 30-60%, or 10-80%, or 20-50%, for example.
- a multilayered structure is a structure that is generated when a bioink is extruded on top of a previously deposited structure.
- the printhead translates in the x-y plane (where the x-y plane is the previously deposited structure), with the nozzle positioned above the previously deposited structure in the z-axis at a height between 10% and 500% of the nozzle inner diameter.
- Droplets, printed filaments, geometric shapes, and infill patterns can all be printed on the previously printed layer.
- the number of previously printed layers is a minimum of 1 to achieve the maximum build height set by the bioprinter system being utilized.
- Bioink printability The overall quantification of the relationship between the resulting filament characteristics and the printing parameters is known as bioink printability.
- the resulting characteristics of a bioink are highly dependent on both the bioink composition and the printing parameters utilized during the fabrication process. These defined metrics can be utilized to compare and contrast different types of bioinks and printing conditions of bioinks.
- Printability metrics of bioinks can include the resultant filament thickness, uniformity, roughness, continuity, color, opacity, and geometry at intersections and other directional changes that is quantifiable during and after the printing process and directly related to the utilized printing parameters.
- Printing parameters of bioinks include applied pressure, strain, force, or flow, translation rate, start delay, stop delay, overshoot, undershoot of the printhead during the printing process, temperature of the bioink, temperature of the print surface, material of the print surface, layer height, infill pattern and density, the nozzle diameter, nozzle shape, and nozzle material.
- a nozzle fidelic material is a bioink that can generate a stable filament with a diameter between 100% and 125% of the nozzle inner diameter.
- a bioink capable of producing a filament of 500 ⁇ m from a nozzle with a 400 ⁇ m inner diameter is considered a nozzle fidelic material for that particular nozzle and conditions.
- Real-time mode In real-time mode, the system processes and compares the data captured by the optical imaging apparatus to the reference data already present in the system and/or the information provided by the user of the 3D bioprinter in actual time or within milliseconds of capturing the image and/or live video feed.
- Layer-by-layer mode In layer-by-layer mode, the system processes and compares the data captured by the optical imaging apparatus to the reference data already present in the system and/or the information provided by the user of the 3D bioprinter after a layer of the 3D build has been printed.
- a process algorithm is any algorithm or protocol that receives an image or video from the optical imaging apparatus and identifies a point of interest, isolates it, and quantifies various metrics.
- a learning algorithm is any algorithm that receives data from or during a measurement and utilizes data from a broader dataset to automatically improve the existing print or future prints.
- a database is a repository of data consisting of bioink printability and properties, results of previous prints, and previous print adjustments that can be accessed by and shared across individual bioprinter systems to provide reference points and aid in the development of process and/or learning algorithms.
- Printing Instructions are computer code or computer-executable instructions which can include G-code files, STL files, text files, or manual inputs.
- Microwell Plate A microwell plate is a flat plate with more than one well used as small test tubes. It is typically used in analytical research and clinical diagnostic testing laboratories.
- Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for optical assessments of bioink printability.
- a 3D printer or bioprinter system is provided that includes a plurality of components that work in concert to optically characterize one or more printability metrics of the 3D printer or bioprinter.

- the one or more calibration targets include patterned arrangements of droplets, filaments, geometric shapes, infill patterns, and/or multilayered structures.
- the one or more calibration targets are fabricated and customized based on input of a user or designation of integrated software and algorithms of the 3D printer or bioprinter.
- the separate surface includes one or more different materials including plastic, glass, hydrogel, or biomolecule coated surfaces to calibrate the one or more printing parameters on different surfaces.
- the one or more calibration targets are fabricated based on previous printability metrics and analysis performed and recommended by learning algorithms to more rapidly test a bioink.
- the calibration target may have lines with diameters of 200 ⁇ m, 400 ⁇ m, 600 ⁇ m, 800 ⁇ m, etc.
- the user can quickly print a line, then compare the line to the targets.
- the comparison may involve comparing the printed bioink to the calibration target to determine if the bioink is printed with the same height and shape as the calibration target. This allows the user to quickly figure out how the material is printing initially so when the algorithm begins to optimize it knows what range of possible printing parameters to start at based on previous data. For example, if a user desires to print a line that is 450 ⁇ m in diameter, the objective is 500 ⁇ m. So the user knows that whatever parameters are desired to be tested should be between the parameters just used to achieve a 450 um diameter line and the parameters observed in the past to achieve a 600 ⁇ m line.
- the algorithm can be programmed to start homing down in that range.

- a “non-transitory computer-readable medium (or media)” may include any kind of computer memory, including magnetic storage media, optical storage media, nonvolatile memory storage media, and volatile memory.
- Non-limiting examples of non-transitory computer-readable storage media include floppy disks, magnetic tape, conventional hard disks, CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, BLU-RAY, Flash ROM, memory cards, optical drives, solid state drives, flash drives, erasable programmable read only memory (EPROM), electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), non-volatile ROM, and RAM.
- the non-transitory computer readable media can include one or more sets of computer-executable instructions for providing an operating system as well as for implementing the algorithms and methods of the invention.
- the computer-executable instructions can be programmed in any suitable programming language, including JavaScript, C, C#, C++, Java, Python, Perl, Ruby, Swift, Visual Basic, and Objective C.
- An example of a process algorithm may include the following steps. First a structure is deposited by a 3D printer system on a print surface. The parameters utilized to print the structure which may include applied pressure, strain, translation speed, nozzle shape, nozzle diameter, layer height, temperature of printhead and/or printbed can be recorded by the system. The structure is then imaged during or after the completion of the printing process. The image can be inputted into the process algorithm. The process algorithm filters out the background and isolates the region of interest. In this example, the region of interest may be a linear filament, but it can be any structure. After finding the region of interest, the application determines the boundaries of the filament or structure.
- the data on the location of these boundaries is extracted and then processed to quantify characteristics of the filament or structure such as diameter, uniformity, thickness, etc.
- This data is then presented to the user so the user can adjust the printing parameters based on the result and refine the printing process, if needed. Additionally, this data can be stored on the printer or uploaded to a database where it can refine other algorithms. See for example FIGS. 4 and 7 .
- An example of a learning algorithm may include the following steps.
- the learning algorithm is used to calibrate a bioink in real-time by comparing it to a standard and historical printing data. The user chooses the desired resulting structural characteristics. Based on previous data, the algorithm sets default printing parameters and then prints a structure. The algorithm then compares the characteristics of the resulting structure to the standard.
- the standard could be the theoretical ideal printing result or a calibration target that has a predefined structure that the print wants to achieve.
- the algorithm predicts how the printing parameters should be adjusted to achieve the desired characteristics. This process can be repeated until the printing parameters that are recommended provide a structure within an acceptable error of the target. See, for example, FIG.
- the learning algorithm sets predicted printing parameters.
- the user inserts an appropriate calibration target and Gcode is generated to print a structure onto the calibration target.
- an image(s) of the printed structure is captured using a camera printhead and the image is analyzed using one or more process algorithm according to the invention.
- one or more learning algorithms can be used to compare the analyzed structure to reference data, such as previous print data and/or stored data relating to other prints.
- New printing parameters can be set and associated Gcode provided for performing the printing using the new printing parameters.
- the printing and analysis steps can be repeated any number of times until the desired/target filament diameter is obtained.
- the printing parameters can be output to a database to be used later as a reference for parameters recommended and/or suggested for obtaining the desired/target filament diameter for that bioink.
- a learning algorithm may include the following process.
- the learning algorithm is used to preset printing parameters based on the composition of the bioink that is provided by the user and/or other source.
- the user inputs data that relates to the composition of the bioink they want to print with, if known.
- the inputted data can include chemical base, concentration, composition, and/or type of material.
- the learning algorithm compares this bioink to previous bioink characteristics obtained, for example, from a reference source and/or previous prints and gives recommended printability data for the bioink. Gcode can be generated to change printing parameters for evaluation.
- the bioink calibration process can follow the steps in the above learning algorithm example to print a 3D structure, image the structure, analyze features of the structure, and compare the structure with other reference structures and/or previously printed structures.
- the algorithm can analyze one or more or all the printability data for one or more or all the bioinks as a whole and make recommendations for new bioinks or improvements in currently used bioinks regarding printability and composition. See, for example, FIG. 5
